John 17

New American Standard Bible 1995

The High Priestly Prayer

1JesusG2424 spokeG2980 theseG3778 thingsG3778; and 1liftingG1869 up His eyesG3788 to heavenG3772, He saidG3004, “FatherG3962, the hourG5610 has comeG2064; 2glorifyG1392 Your SonG5207, that the SonG5207 may glorifyG1392 You, 2evenG2531 as 3You gaveG1325 Him authorityG1849 over allG3956 fleshG4561, that 4to 5allG3956 whomG3739 You have givenG1325 Him, 6He may giveG1325 eternalG166 lifeG2222. 3ThisG3778 is eternalG166 lifeG2222, that they may knowG1097 You, 7the onlyG3441 trueG228 GodG2316, and JesusG2424 ChristG5547 whomG3739 8You have sentG649. 49I glorifiedG1392 You on the earthG1093, 1011having accomplishedG5048 the workG2041 whichG3739 You have givenG1325 Me to doG4160. 5NowG3568, FatherG3962, 12glorifyG1392 Me togetherG3844 with YourselfG4572, with the gloryG1391 whichG3739 I hadG2192 13with You beforeG4253 the worldG2889 was.

6“14I have manifestedG5319 Your nameG3686 to the menG444 whomG3739 15You gaveG1325 Me out of the worldG2889; they were 16YoursG4771 and You gaveG1325 them to Me, and they have 17keptG5083 Your wordG3056. 7NowG3568 they have come to knowG1097 that everythingG3956 You have givenG1325 Me is from You; 8for 18the wordsG4487 whichG3739 You gaveG1325 Me 19I have givenG1325 to them; and they receivedG2983 them and trulyG230 understoodG1097 that 20I cameG1831 forthG1831 from You, and they believedG4100 that 21You sentG649 Me. 922I askG2065 on their behalfG4012; 23I do not askG2065 on behalfG4012 of the worldG2889, but of those whomG3739 24You have givenG1325 Me; for 25they are YoursG4771; 10and 26allG3956 thingsG3956 that are MineG1699 are YoursG4674, and YoursG4674 are MineG1699; and I have been glorifiedG1392 in them. 11I amG1510 noG3765 longerG3765 in the worldG2889; and yet 27they themselvesG846 are in the worldG2889, and 28I comeG2064 to You. 29HolyG40 FatherG3962, keepG5083 them in Your nameG3686, the name 30whichG3739 You have givenG1325 Me, that 31they may be oneG1520 evenG2531 as We are. 12WhileG3753 I was with them, I was keepingG5083 them in Your nameG3686 32whichG3739 You have givenG1325 Me; and I guardedG5442 them and 33not oneG3762 of them perishedG622 but 34the 35sonG5207 of perditionG684, soG2443 that the 36ScriptureG1124 would be fulfilledG4137.

The Disciples in the World

13But nowG3568 37I comeG2064 to You; and 38theseG3778 thingsG3778 I speakG2980 in the worldG2889 soG2443 that they may haveG2192 My 39joyG5479 madeG4137 fullG4137 in themselvesG1438. 14I have givenG1325 them Your wordG3056; and 40the worldG2889 has hatedG3404 them, becauseG3754 41they are not of the worldG2889, evenG2531 as I amG1510 not of the worldG2889. 15I do not askG2065 You to takeG142 them out of the worldG2889, but to keepG5083 them 42from 4344the evilG4190 one. 1645They are not of the worldG2889, evenG2531 as I amG1510 not of the worldG2889. 1746SanctifyG37 them in the truthG225; Your wordG3056 is truthG225. 18As 47You sentG649 Me into the worldG2889, 48I alsoG2532 have sentG649 them into the worldG2889. 19For their sakesG5228 I 49sanctifyG37 MyselfG1683, that they themselvesG846 alsoG2532 may be 50sanctifiedG37 51in truthG225.

20“I do not askG2065 on behalfG4012 of theseG3778 aloneG3441, but for thoseG3588 alsoG2532 who believeG4100 in Me throughG1223 their wordG3056; 21that they may allG3956 be oneG1520; 52evenG2531 as You, FatherG3962, are in Me and I in You, that they alsoG2532 may be in Us, 53soG2443 that the worldG2889 may 54believeG4100 that 55You sentG649 Me.

Their Future Glory

22The 56gloryG1391 whichG3739 You have givenG1325 Me I have givenG1325 to them, that they may be oneG1520, justG2531 as We are oneG1520; 2357I in them and You in Me, that they may be perfectedG5048 58in unityG1520, soG2443 that the worldG2889 may 59knowG1097 that 60You sentG649 Me, and 61lovedG25 them, evenG2531 as You have lovedG25 Me. 24FatherG3962, I desireG2309 that 62they alsoG2548, whomG3739 You have givenG1325 Me, 63be with Me whereG3699 I amG1510, soG2443 that they may seeG2334 My 64gloryG1391 whichG3739 You have givenG1325 Me, for You lovedG25 Me beforeG4253 65the foundationG2602 of the worldG2889.

25“O 66righteousG1342 FatherG3962, 67althoughG2532 68the worldG2889 has not knownG1097 You, yetG1161 I have knownG1097 You; and theseG3778 have knownG1097 that 69You sentG649 Me; 26and 70I have madeG1107 Your nameG3686 knownG1107 to them, and will makeG1107 it knownG1107, soG2443 that 71the loveG26 with whichG3739 You lovedG25 Me may be in them, and I in them.”
